January 11 – I am a Rose: A Journey in Self-Esteem

This training will be held live online in our classroom from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. EST on Saturday, January 11, 2025.

Young children must learn coping skills for dealing with both positive and negative
stress factors in their life. Journaling is powerful and will provide the outlet children need to
express how they feel about situations and experiences. Early childhood providers will learn
strategies for incorporating journaling into daily routines and how to use journals as a tool for
social-emotional support and assessment
